Easy Cornbread
This Easy Cornbread combines all-purpose flour, coarse cornmeal, and buttermilk into a batter enriched with melted butter, oil, and eggs, then studded with frozen corn kernels. The result is a moist and slightly sweet cornbread with a golden crust and tender crumb, suitable as a side or snack. Baking in an 8x8-inch pan creates a practical shape for cutting and serving.
